Remarks
The Shadow class is used to contain the shadow settings. The properties exposed by this class allow you to customize the shadow color (Shadow.Color), size (Shadow.Size) and visibility (Shadow.Visible).
An object of the Shadow type can be accessed via the Shadow properties of different chart elements (for instance, the legend‘s LegendBase.Shadow property, a pane‘s XYDiagramPaneBase.Shadow property, a label’s SeriesLabelBase.Shadow property, etc).
Example
This example demonstrates the possibilities of customizing a chart diagram‘s panes‘ appearance at runtime.
XYDiagramPane myPane = new XYDiagramPane("The Pane's Name");
myPane.BackColor = Color.Aqua;
myPane.FillStyle.FillMode = FillMode.Empty;
myPane.BorderVisible = true;
myPane.BorderColor = Color.Blue;
myPane.Shadow.Visible = true;
myPane.Shadow.Color = Color.LightGray;
myPane.Shadow.Size = 2;
